A presentation of the Yagi Antennas, and other interesting tid-bits by Brian Mileshosky. The document provides an in-depth exploration of the Yagi-Uda antenna, detailing its historical development, design principles, and performance characteristics. Originally described in the 1920s, the Yagi antenna features a driven element and parasitic elements, including reflectors and directors, which collectively determine its behavior. The document highlights how element lengths, diameters, and spacing influence gain, impedance, and directivity. It also discusses the antenna's reciprocal nature and presents data on typical gain values for various element configurations. Additionally, the text covers practical considerations, such as the construction of a "Tape Measure Yagi" for amateur use, and touches on related antenna types like dipoles and their application in Near Vertical Incident Skywave (NVIS) communication.

Constructing a compact directional antenna for the 17-meter band, this resource details the build process for a Moxon rectangle, a two-element Yagi variant with folded-back elements. It covers the antenna's evolution from the _VK2ABQ beam_ and provides specific dimensions for a version built using fishing pole whips. The content includes a discussion of the antenna's radiation pattern, feedpoint impedance, and its inherent front-to-back ratio, which is often superior to a standard two-element Yagi. Practical considerations for element spacing and material choices are also addressed, alongside a visual representation of the antenna's physical layout. Performance data presented includes a comparison showing the Moxon rectangle's **2.5 dB gain** over a half-wave dipole and a front-to-back ratio of **20 dB**. The resource also touches upon the antenna's relatively wide bandwidth for a two-element beam and its suitability for portable operations due to its compact footprint. It offers insights into optimizing the design for specific operating conditions and discusses the advantages of its lower take-off angle compared to omnidirectional wire antennas, making it effective for DX contacts on the 17-meter band.

Three Yagi antennas for the six meters band by 9A7PJT. Include a 4 element yagi, a custom design 4 element, and a 5 element yagi with antennas pictures and design.

A 7 dB directional gain is reported for this portable VHF Yagi antenna design, which utilizes cut metal tape measure sections for its elements. The resource details the construction process for a 2-meter band antenna, emphasizing its ease of build and portability. It specifically mentions the design's suitability for radio direction finding (RDF), fox hunting, and communication with satellites and the International Space Station (ISS), highlighting its practical applications for amateur radio operators. The construction cost is estimated at under $20, with potential for even lower expense if salvaged materials like old tape measures and PVC pipes are used. The article references _Joe Leggio's_ (WB2HOL) original design, noting specific alterations made by the author. It also compares this design to other DIY Yagi antennas, including _FN64's_ 2-meter band and _manuka's_ 70-cm band tape measure Yagis, underscoring its unique combination of simplicity, portability, and effective performance with a 1:1 SWR achievable on the 2-meter band.
